The only way to win is to learn faster than anyone else.
All leaders are learners. The moment you stop learning, you stop leading. I learn as much as I can, from as many as I can, as often as I can.
We must develop knowledge optimization initiatives to leverage our key learnings.
The less unnecessary effort you put into learning, the more successful you'll be . . . Doing the wrong thing with more intensity rarely improves the situation.

It's often been said that you learn more from losing than you do from winning. I think, if you're wise, you learn from both. You learn a lot from a loss.

You gotta follow the white guys. Truly. They've got this thing wired. Too often, we live within their games, so why would you not study what works?

The best results are achieved by using the right amount of effort in the right place at the right time. And this right amount is usually less than we think we need. In other words, the less unnecessary effort you put into learning, the more successful you'll be... the key to faster learning is to use appropriate effort. Greater effort can exacerbate faulty patterns of action. Doing the wrong thing with more intensity rarely improves the situation. Learning something new often requires us to unlearn something old.
It's right to learn, even from the enemy.
Absorb knowledge from every possible source and opportunity. Power gravitates to the man who knows how and why.
You have to learn the playbook inside and out. You have to learn code words for each play. You have to learn defenses.
From the errors of other nations, let us learn wisdom.
As educators, our challenge is to match the needs of our learners to a world that is changing with great rapidity. To meet this challenge, we need to become strategic learners ourselves by deliberately expanding our perspectives and updating our approaches.
